List of 'worst' songs

 

X Marks The Spot

Army Of One

Up In Flames

Another's Arms

Til Kingdom Come

Hymn For The Weekend (only studio version is crap)

Fun

Up&Up (Radio Edit)

AOAL (Radio Edit)

ASFOS (Radio Edit)

ALL THE FUCKING RADIO EDITS :angry:

The Clocks and Talk radio edits were OK imo, though I agree with a lot that you mentioned.

 

Although I don't exactly "hate" Major Minus, I loathe the production of the song- it sounds so plastic/cheap compared to the live version

You're probably like the happiest person on here :D, that's why you don't like those tunes.

Lemme guess: your favorite album is AHFOD...

Nope X&Y is my favorite, with AROBTTH being a very, very close second. Just don't care for those two songs because they don't sound well to me, and those are both on my favorite albums which is saying something. I do love AHFOD too, love all their albums for what they are and try not to compare.

i hate a whisper too i just don't get it. there were much better B sides that should have made it to the album in place of this song

X Marks The Spot. What a terrible song. Sure, props to the band for trying to experiment, yadda yadda yadda. But I'm getting the feeling that they're missing the mark. Lets see... X Marks The Spot kills the flow of the album, makes little thematic sense in relation to the rest of the album, has lyrics that a 4 year old could've written, and has the most "generic" pop sound of any Coldplay song. The last time I actually listened to that detestable song was back in December. I fiddled with iTunes so that once Army of One ends, it skips directly to Amazing Day.

 

I think Up In Flames is pretty bad, too. The lyrics are nothing special. I don't like the production. Up In Flames is the one Coldplay song where I can't stand Will's contribution; the broken clock/drum pad is annoying and unnecessary. Everglow is another take on the sound that they were trying to achieve, and in my opinion it is a huge improvement.

I agree, they could have as well have released it as a B-Side or something.

Seriously, the part where Chris starts singing "Tell me you love me..."... Horrible!

 

Funny, this is for me one of the most outstanding lines in Coldplay discography. And i say that as a person who does not like the sound of True Love at all.

I don't hate Coldplay songs, but I do notice I skip GPASUYF whenever it comes on my iPod. And I only like the live version of Everything's Not Lost, not the recorded version

I have to say I hate Violet Hill... always skip it when I listen to VLVADAAHF.

Also I don't understand why so many people hate Up in Flames, in my opinion is one of their most beautiful songs... it really moves me.

 

(Think I must be the only person in the world who hates Violet Hill but loves Up in Flames, please don't hate me guys :laugh4:)

You are definitely a rarity. I don't think I've ever encountered someone who prefers Up in Flames to Violet Hill. Most people here won't even mention them in the same post. :tongue:

Yeah, X Marks the Spot has to be the worst. It's probably the only one I really hate.

I really liked x marks the spot. It's different but in a cool way. I do agree with you about those darn radio edits. The originals are always better. They cut off the believe in love on the up&up radio edit. That is just not ok.[/Quote]
